ill be ordering a diff type of bagging material which stretches.. to help with the corners more.. also will be getting a different peel ply since my current stuff leaves a ruff surface.. and more of a dry look

clee109

clee109

Perhaps we should make it a meet and eat. So meet up and have dinner at like the cheesecake factory. Bring the significant others and what not. Change it up a bit.

clee109

I saw you as I looked over the freeway from the off ramp! Could tell by the black wheels and roof overlay ha, but from the rearview I didn't know, not to mention I was half day dreaming and half looking for cops :P lol

Ok so it seems that even though I no longer own an Acura, I still keep coming back to this forum, there's something addicting about it..

clee109

It's only cause this thread rocks! Lol

clee109

Though the level of rocking lately has not been great! Heat get to everyone?

bluecarbonfiber

sure has gotten me, been working on parts and being out in my little shed/shop trying to complete them before fall/winter.. wife is starting to complain now too haha

clee109

I feel ya, I washed, polished, sealed and waxed the TSX for the first time in a year, took about 4.5 hours and the wife was riding me lol

bluecarbonfiber

haha.. if i did all that in 4-5 hours my wife would be jumping for joy.. this weekend i gotta change the front brakes while im at it im replacing the pass knuckle and cv.. theres a good 4 hours of my time there.. hopefully the rain will stay away

clee109

^^ do it enough times it goes fast lol.

Gotta do the oil in the Jetta and TSX this weekend meh! The gotta get a front bumper valance for the Jetta and find somewhere to paint it factory white for a good price. Britt is tired of her beat up valence from the previous owners.

bluecarbonfiber

^ uh oh.. better get maaco HAHA.. they actually might do it for you cheap

ya done the CV a few times.. i say 4 hours just incase i run into a snag with a bolt.. but it should only take me 2 if i bust it out and it all goes smooth

bluecarbonfiber

Im guessing Marco got busted for DUII cause he hasnt been around for a while

Mr Marco

Been fishin' at 21deg. North. Back on the main/homeland now, burnt and busted. Went to Oahu and was shocked not to see one single hot supercar. Not even crusing Waikiki Beach. Lots of other good things to look at though.

Did however catch this\/ GT3 on the North Shore.



Otherwise, lots of this\/


Odd, the economy seems good there and there is a Lambo dealer, but no supercars???

bluecarbonfiber

^ all the prices are jacked up there.. due to import export.. i know a guy that moved there and opened a touring/motel business.. he said he makes a grip but with all the jacked up prices it evens itself out

Be there.

bluecarbonfiber

^ good stuff

Mr Marco

Back to reality.

Fresh off of vacation, I woke up looking forward to going back to work. As much as I love sleeping in, eating cookies for breakfast, and generally just being lazy, I was looking forward to getting back into a regular schedule. However, now that I'm here I've changed my mind.

updated engine bay.
was cleaning accent's throttle body last night and hmmm.. why not paint the spark cover? didn't even spend time prepping it. wiped off some oil/dirt with paper towel and sprayed it right on.

Mr Marco

Curious why you didn't choose a Civic, other than the obvious "I don't want the same car every 19 yr old has."

There are sooo many aftermarket options for the Civic that I've considered getting one as a commuter.

bluecarbonfiber

the car has come so far!! what next on the list?? could probably polish the intake manifold or the cam cover

bluecarbonfiber

whats up with the chick in the background of the avatar picture? was she humping the wax figure?

missed my previous posts?? i didn't choose other cars because this thing was FREE. i probably went with is300 if again i didn't get accent for free

i'm done other than diy stuffs that i can do with left over parts and paints. if they run out, i'm done with diy too. no more money into this car other than gas and regular maintenance. but i need new shocks before that its about time to go i think.


today, i took fx35 for a drive. needs some new oil change and have to clean stillen intake filter. first time driving in a month or two. bought in november 2009 with 28500 miles. today odo was at 39,300. if it wasn't for the road trip in 2010, it will be 3000 miles less. still have that new car leather smell to it. looove it haha
